Rabbit Bed & Hideaway Guide: How to Create a Cosy and Safe Space for Your Bunny

If you’ve ever watched your bunny curl up in their favourite corner, you’ll know just how much comfort means to them. Creating a cosy resting space isn’t just about looks – it’s about safety, warmth, and care. The right rabbit bed helps your little one feel secure, supported, and loved, turning any quiet spot into their happy place.

At WeLoveMochi, we believe every rabbit deserves a soft, peaceful corner to rest and recharge. Whether you’re a new bunny parent or looking to upgrade your setup, understanding what makes a great rabbit bed is the first step to building your bunny’s dream hideaway.

What Makes a Good Rabbit Bed

A rabbit bed isn’t just a soft spot to nap; it’s your bunny’s safe zone. Rabbits are sensitive animals who naturally seek enclosed spaces for comfort and protection. In the wild, they rest in burrows to feel secure. At home, a soft, enclosed bed mimics that feeling of safety, helping your rabbit feel calm, confident, and happy.

Providing a proper rabbit bed also supports healthy posture, prevents sore hocks, and helps your bunny relax after playtime. When your rabbit feels comfortable, they’re more likely to explore, eat well, and bond with you.

Choosing the Best Rabbit Bed

When choosing a rabbit bed, focus on three key things: comfort, safety, and practicality. Look for:

  • Soft, breathable fabrics: Cotton or fleece helps regulate temperature and feels gentle under their paws.
  • Washable materials: Rabbits are tidy, but accidents happen. Washable beds keep things fresh.
  • Chew-safe design: Avoid foam or plastic that can be dangerous if ingested.

Place your rabbit’s bed in a quiet area away from drafts and direct sunlight. Rabbits love corners where they can see the room but still feel secure.

Add a Rabbit Hideaway for Extra Safety

A rabbit hideaway is an essential addition to any cosy setup. It gives your bunny a private place to retreat when they feel anxious, tired, or need alone time.

Choose natural materials such as timber or seagrass. They’re safe for chewing and add a warm, natural feel to your rabbit’s space. If you have dogs or cats, a hideaway is extra important because it helps your rabbit feel secure and reduces stress.

Add Enrichment and Play

A comfortable rabbit bed is only part of the story. Bunnies love stimulation, so add tunnels, chew toys, and hay feeders to make their space more exciting. Rotate toys weekly so your rabbit never gets bored. A happy, engaged rabbit is a healthy rabbit.

Keep Your Rabbit’s Bed Clean

To keep your rabbit’s cosy corner fresh:

  • Clean the rabbit bed weekly.
  • Replace soiled hay and damp spots daily.
  • Use a mild, pet-safe disinfectant.
  • Brush away loose fur and check for wear and tear.

A clean sleeping space helps prevent bacteria, odour, and discomfort.
